Question
p-n junction diode acts as:
✓
Answer
- non-ohmic resistance
We know that in the case of metallic conductors, the potential difference varies in direct proportion to the current flowing. The I−V graph of a ohmic conductor is a straight line. But, a p-n junction diode is not in according with Ohm's law. The current voltage characteristic curve of a p-n junction diode shows both forward bias as well as reverse bias characteristics as shown as in the graph.

Consider the two idealised systems: (i) a parallel plate capacitor with large plates and small separation and (ii) a long solenoid of length L > > R, radius of cross-section. In (i), E is ideally treated as a constant between plates and zero outside. In (ii), magnetic field is constant inside the solenoid and zero outside. These idealised assumptions, however, contradict fundamental laws as below:
